Two armed helicopters sped down from the sky and landed on the sand not far away. Major Rhodes led several special forces soldiers and ran over quickly.

Seeing Tony's carefree laughter, Rod said irritably, "Still riding in your Happy Jeep?"

Originally, after the weapons demonstration, Rhodes planned to have Tony follow the motorcade of senior military officers through the security passage.

Who would have thought that this sixth man insisted on visiting the beautiful desert scenery and having a fun trip, taking a different, more remote road, which led to the terrorist attack.

Not only were all the American soldiers responsible for his protection killed, but Tony himself was also half-dead, seriously injured, and missing for three whole months.

Stark Industries' stock plummeted, and the military, FBI, CIA, and government agencies were thrown into chaos, searching everywhere for the brilliant billionaire.

Tony didn't want to say anything, he just gave a self-deprecating bitter smile.

He couldn't help but complain about this abstract good luck.

As the CEO of Stark Industries, he traveled all the way to the middle of nowhere just to showcase Stark Industries' latest Jellicoe missile.

As a result, they were kidnapped by terrorists and driven to the brink of despair.

Then I saw a blonde beauty who had come back from the dead, floating in the air, her eyes shooting out red laser beams that tore all the terrorists to pieces... What kind of monster is this?!

He never wants to experience something like that again in his life!

"Promise me you'll come with me next time, okay?" Rhodes patted the genius on the shoulder with a mischievous grin and said.

Tony pursed his lips, indicating that he still didn't want to talk, and pointed to the stretcher behind him.

Rod glanced at them in confusion and saw that the two men were lying on the scrap metal, the rubber straps they used to pull them apart broken down to the size of a palm.

One of them was a middle-aged man wearing glasses, his face pale, seemingly seriously injured. He barely opened his eyes and nodded to Rod.

When Major Rhodes saw the other "injured patient" clearly, he paused for a moment, a meaningful light flashing in his eyes.

He looked around, then leaned close to Tony's ear and whispered, "Dude, since you disappeared, the outside world has been in complete chaos. Every department is looking for you... and her too."

Lu Yunmeng's tightly closed eyes twitched twice, indicating that she had heard clearly.

Tony survived the ordeal, Ethan remained unconscious, and Rhodes explained the seriousness of the situation, but no one noticed anything unusual about her.

And don't assume she's really unconscious; if attacked, she could still manage a couple of punches in an emergency.

Tony's previously nonchalant face immediately turned serious. He squinted at his old friend and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The military has issued orders to find freelance journalist Yunmeng Lu at all costs and bring her back," Rod said, then pointed subtly to the sky above.

Tony immediately understood what the other party meant: the powerful superpowers displayed by this "Superwoman" had been detected by the monitoring satellite.

Moreover, the military obtained all of the female reporter's identity information and materials in a short period of time.

Now that I'm thinking of taking the person back, I know what I'm going to do without even thinking.

As Howard Stark's son, Tony knew a little about the Super Soldier program.

Moreover, the military's research methods were quite extreme, and their technology was quite poor. They apparently created a huge green thing that is said to have amazing destructive power.

"No, she's a Stark Industries press correspondent; the military has no right to order her around!"

Tony raised an eyebrow, shook his head, and started making up a job title on the spot. He didn't want his savior to be used as a guinea pig for research.

"Are you sure? Shouldn't she be your bodyguard, using her identity as a reporter as cover to go deep into the desert in order to save you?" Rod looked at his old friend seriously and reminded him.

“Ah, right, that’s it. Killing terrorists isn’t illegal, and neither the government nor the military has the right to control my employees!” Tony nodded, reacting quickly, indicating that you’re right, that’s exactly what I think.

“OK Tony, I can help you cover for the military, but as you know, the other departments aren’t so easy to fool,” Rhodes warned in a low voice.

"Just have them come find me when the time comes. Now, immediately, arrange for them to receive treatment at the best hospital. They absolutely cannot have any connections or backgrounds, understand?"

Tony grinned defiantly and patted his chest.

In the beautiful capitalist country, big capital sometimes carries more weight than the president.

He happens to be a major investor, and one of the top-tier investors in the country.

"Oh, by the way, could you also arrange treatment for me? Find a pretty doctor~"

"As you wish," Rhodes said helplessly, having no other choice but to comply with his old friend.

"Don't tell Pepper!"

Meanwhile, in the Director's office of the Strategic Defense, Attack and Logistics Agency.

Nick Fury was sitting in a soft chair, his brow furrowed as he looked at the documents in his hands.

"Red rays, high-speed flight, a powerful body capable of withstanding heavy weaponry, really? Are you sure God isn't playing a joke on us?"

Phil Coulson smiled faintly and stood respectfully at the table: "Director, we have access to the surveillance satellites, and the images are crystal clear. Apart from not wearing the iconic blue bodysuit and red cape, our female reporter's abilities are almost like those of Superman from the comics."

"Fuck you, you can easily move the continental shelf, drag the Earth along with those damn iron chains, and extinguish the sun with a single breath?" Nick Fury stared in shock, his mouth agape.

Who hasn't read the Superman comics? The thought of those exaggerated superpowers appearing in real life is enough to make one's scalp tingle. He had an urge to press the pager button immediately!

"You're talking about a Silver-level Superman. Judging from the video footage, this Superwoman's abilities probably don't reach that exaggerated level."

Agent Coulson analyzed seriously, knowing that besides being a Captain America fan, he was also a Superman fan, and he was most excited about the existence of such a being on Earth.

“Then what are we waiting for? You’re in charge of this. Find an opportunity to make contact!” Nick Fury made the decision without hesitation.

S.H.I.E.L.D. needs fresh blood and more supernatural beings, which would be of countless benefits to its long-standing Avengers program.

It would be best to win them over, but if that's not possible, they should still be placed under his control. He certainly doesn't want a terrorist with superhuman abilities to appear on Earth.

The Skrull and Kree incidents from over a decade ago were still fresh in his mind; the threat of extraterrestrial civilizations remained ever-present. He didn't want to live in constant fear and experience that same sense of helplessness again. Earth needed its own protective force!

“As you wish, Director,” Agent Coulson replied with a smile.

"Handle some messy things for this female reporter, and slap back the claws the military and government are reaching out to you! Understand?"

Nick Fury went on to emphasize that S.H.I.E.L.D. wasn't the only agency in this world targeting those with supernatural abilities.

"Don't worry, our people are already on the move," Coulson nodded.

Three days later, at Stark Industries, in a private medical facility, in a VIP ward.

Lu Yunmeng slowly opened her eyes, felt her body's condition, and smiled slightly.

The body undergoes genetic mutations due to the unilateral introduction of cosmic rays by the system, and the cellular activity remains in a state of extreme excitement.

When the body awakens in the cryopreservation room, the genetic mutations and the body's acceptance level have not reached a balance.

Using superpowers rashly triggered the body's self-protection mechanism, causing it to 'freeze' during flight.

He was conscious, but physically weak and powerless, and only slowly woke up when the degree of harmony was completely balanced.

Even so, imitating Homelander's template is no joke; if someone were to take advantage of her, creating a 'shocking' scene would be entirely possible.

Lu Yunmeng silently said: "Bring up the system panel."

Name: Lu Yunmeng

[Energy Level: Surface Level]

[Status: Weak]

Gender: Female

[Template Comparison: Homelander, 100% similarity]

[Source of superpowers: Cosmic rays causing genetic mutations]

[Super Strength (Maximum Muscle Strength 350 tons)]

[Super Speed ​​(Maximum running speed on land: Mach 13, 4420 meters per second)]

[Super defensive capabilities (can withstand most thermal weapons, but cannot defend against nuclear explosions)]

[Super self-healing (10000 times more active than normal human cells, capable of absorbing energy for rapid wound healing, but unable to regenerate limbs)]

[Flight (Mach 35, 12000 meters per second)]

Laser Eyes (4000℃)

[X-ray vision (can penetrate the human body, metal materials, and reinforced concrete buildings, but cannot penetrate special metal zinc)]

[Super Hearing (captures all sounds within a five-kilometer radius)]

Looking at the abilities on the template, Lu Yunmeng felt they were alright; although similar to Homelander, they were also somewhat different.

For example, Homelander's energy comes from a special compound V, and her abilities do indeed originate from genetic mutations caused by cosmic rays.

The basic abilities are the same, except that it has the added super self-healing and energy absorption.

It's important to know that in the TV series "The Boys," Homelander's body is so strong that he is difficult to get hurt, so his cells have not evolved super healing abilities because they don't need to.

Lu Yunmeng pouted, a little disappointed that she couldn't get stronger by sunbathing.

She has accepted the fact that she was reborn as a woman; if she can't resist it, then she'll accept it. Completely disillusioned with love, she declares that she doesn't care about gender!

[Ding! The previous incarnation's dying wish has been fulfilled, and the genetic mutation is complete.]

The system will not issue tasks; the path to becoming stronger must be explored by the host themselves.

At that moment, a cold, mechanical voice appeared in my mind, and the system gave me a prompt.

This world is full of unknown mysteries; the host may explore it on their own.

[The system will only retain the data panel; the system consciousness will completely depart. The host is advised to take care.]

"What? Wait a minute!" Lu Yunmeng exclaimed in surprise, her lips twitching as she blurted out.

Good grief, why was I reborn? I have no purpose, no mission, I have to rely entirely on myself?

But no matter how she called out, the system didn't respond, leaving only cold data.

"Okay, you're awesome!" Lu Yunmeng sighed. If you're going to figure it out on your own, then so be it. Anyone can do an adventure!

Based on the system's prompts, she roughly knew that once her body had fully recovered, using her abilities would no longer result in such a terrible state as unconsciousness.

Fortunately, his body was strong enough that he was unharmed even after falling from a height of several hundred meters, but it was Tony and Ethan who suffered the most...

By the way, how are those two doing?

"Supergirl, are you awake? God, that's wonderful!" Just then, a voice suddenly came from the side, and Tony, with his injured arm in a sling, excitedly strode into the ward from the doorway.

Chapter 6 Be My Bodyguard!

After returning to Los Angeles, Tony held a press conference at Stark Industries headquarters.
